Numerous of cases have been documented where a patient tests negative but actually do have COVID19. Such as inhaling the virus directly into your lungs; the swap tests only swap tissues from the nose and throat, it doesn't detect catch these cases. More recent examples like Trumps's Tulsa rally. 2 members of his staffs tests positive after the event even though the president has all the resources in the world to test, prevent, COVID19 infections during his event. The bottomline is less exposure less risk. As simple as that. The inability to take COVID19 seriously is why it is still a ongoing crisis in North America when the rest of the world is actually moving on. And the posts on this forum shows this so very clearly. BC has one of the lowest amount of Covid cases, or am I incorrect? And what makes you think we don't take this seriously cause we don't lose our mind about a guy going to a bar? Lol. Does anyone here 100% take 0 risks of exposure? No. Holding Jake to that standard is a joke. But I forgot. Since they make millions they aren't allowed to have social lives while the rest of us do. You can take Covid seriously and not sit in your bedroom 24/7. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And whose to say you can’t go out to a bar once in a while and still take Covid seriously? I’m anti social and even I need to leave my bubble once in a while, and I’m smart about keeping my proper distance with people. I’m not saying it’s necessary or he should do it often. But it’s not worthy of making a “Jake is being immature again” thread/post about it. Bars are open, I trust he knows the safety precautions. As do all of us when we go out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, less exposure less risk. So I guess we can assume that you have been staying inside your home continuously for the last several months, having everything delivered and leaving everything outside for an extended period of time to be de-virused? How admirable of you to set such a fine example for us. The rest of the world is actually moving on? You mean like the way Brazil, India, Russia, Bangladesh, Chile, Peru, South Africa, etc. are moving on? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't patronize those of us who don't agree with your stance. The exaggerations that some are making suggest their stance isn't as strong as they'd like. We ALL can do as we please but our health officials have told us to continue to stay within our bubble and to social distance and when that's not possible, wear a mask. It's all about doing everything we can...not everything we want. 2 hours ago, WeneedLumme said: Yes, less exposure less risk.

How admirable of you to set such a fine example for us. Yes, my family and I have followed the guidelines to a t...we have vulnerable family members to protect. Besides, we're talking about clubbing....not going out for essentials which was deemed ok. There's a difference. "Needs" vs "wants". Anyhow, what's done is done. Not really worth dragging out for days because you can't undo it. But it does hint at the fact that Jake has a fork in the road situation at the age he's at. He's been on a path of do you really want this or not before. So he can really bear down and immerse himself fully/completely into hockey (as Petey does) with focus and commitment which will likely help him progress or he can be pulled by the lure of fame and celebrity (a strong pull for young guys) that can be a distraction. Sacrifice is part of this. All in with hockey now then bask in the glory after it's been earned. Even the whole shotgun thing...love it and I fully participate, but it can go to a guy's head who isn't quite "there yet". We have a cup to win....that's what I want all the guys on this team focused on right now. Re-bonding and setting their eye on the prize. Together..."this" crew. Time for Jake to join a team like that and ditch the worst crew ever. For now, not forever. 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea that going out to a restaurant is okay but a bar is not seems pretty double standard-ish. Sorry for a lack of a better word. There's always an option to just stay cooped up. We all go out for reasons that aren't deemed 100% necessary, or at least I imagine most of us do. The issue to me is that Jake has a history of partying and not taking his career serious enough (showing up to camp out of shape...twice, if I’m not mistaken). Yet again it ends up on social media- he just doesn’t seem to be getting it. And what’s with the #worstcrewever hat? Just screams immaturity to me. Who gives a crap what Leipsic said- you’re in the league and he’s not. Grow up and get over it. I like Jake, always have. I’ve pulled for him since the day we drafted for him and will continue to, but like @King Heffy said, I don’t know if it’s ever going to work for him in Vancouver. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His play this season tells me he’s just fine. I dunno why we all care so much what he does in his free time. I have a hockey obsession but I’m not gonna micro analyze what these guys do in their spare time then make assumptions about their dedication to the game with little to no information. But that’s just me. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that was the whole reason for the video. This was Jake going on camera dunking on a KHLer for insulting his friends. Its just the kind of stupid thing young people are taught is "cool" on social media. I don't see this as an issue of 'intelligence' like some are making it out to be, I think its just immaturity. I just hope he grows out of faster than the team gets tired of him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vannuck59 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Virtanen's brain will never catch up to his talent. Ever since Junior he has had a tough time with smart choices. Would not have drafted him in 2014, 5 or 6 better choices. Border line power forward, Jim was looking for a difference maker Jake is not it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have drafted Fleury, Ritchie, or Perlini with our pick. Studs. Seriously though there were almost as many duds in that top 12 as there were studs. The fact that Virtanen is at least showing he can be a 20 goal guy with a responsible two way game and some physicality is a hell of a lot better than predictions a couple years ago. Sure there were better picks but that’s the way of the draft. At least he’s turning the corner and showing he can be a player. And he’s still more mature than Kassian was at that age if that means anything. Still time to mature. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really - but only because most of it could be under the Covid thread - which is setting a record for posts on this site that likely no other topic will beat ever. Surpassed the Burrows thread in what three months? - and it’s a off-topic thread. Maybe a cup winning thread will have enough legs one day. As for JV, he’s a grown man who can make his own decisions. BC is virtually free of Covid compared to any US state - and Ontario/and Quebec - and mental health breaks are factor in this - everyone needs to blow a little steam out sometimes and this is what people of his age do. The place was open to the public like it or not. What’s next? EP goes to a crowded restaurant and is caught not socially distancing? That should get another 10 or so pages of OMG the sky is falling.
